Thanks Matthew! Do you know whether or not any or both of the two versions are officially available at the moment? If not, I will re-rip both versions. This is just too great a record to stay unavailable.

Mike Kowalsky who penned most of the lyrics, was my big brother. He sent me both versions: the original mix on a cassette and the original Posh Boy release. Mike was an inspiration to others due to his humour and creativity; even though he did not have the perfect pitch of our mother! I grew up in Mexico due to our mom’s two messy divorces. My only contact with Mike were postcards and the great music that he sent us periodically from the States. Several years later I played percussion in a Mexican rock band but I decided not to record with them despite having been invited, as like Mike I did not consider myself to be a real musician.

Can you please post the complete “Can You Hear Me? Music From the Deaf Club?” I had the LP, but it got broken in a move, and I have never been able to find another one. I wish they would get around to reissuing this one.

great album… But I wish somebody could direct me to their original version of “I” later covered by the Bad Brains. I no longer have a copy of it.

On the UXA tip :

I’m looking for any kind soul who can SCAN and email me the articles on UXA and Michael Kowalsky from Search & Destroy magazine (I think it’s issue 7)

Lost both my original paper copy and the reprint book in move to Europe and NEED this big time.

Can barter over something in return -;)

Erich, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, ad infinituum!

PS: I think I forgot to mention something. Oh yeah!:Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

PPS: And don't worry about those who don't like Metal. Real music is good regardless of genre.
